Acceleration
How will the box move? 16 N8 N
Key Variable - New Acceleration –the rate of change in velocity. Measured – indirectly using velocity, distance and time or using an ACCELEROMETER Units = m/s 2 When acted on by a net external force An object will ALWAYS accelerate
Key equation Change in velocity a = Δ v t
Acceleration in a Velocity v. Time Graph Slope will tell rate of acceleration Acceleration from gravity is a constant 9.81 m/s 2 (rounds to 10)
Teacher Example C Pick three ways you can safely accelerate a car and describe how each is classified as acceleration.
